I Wilt Celebrate Diamond Jubilee Dominion Day FLESHERTON L.O.L. IS TO HOLD BIG DAY ON JULY 1 â€"BIG CELEBRATION PLANNED I Special Services in the Churches on Sunday De Laval Cream Separator In order to commemorate the dia niond anniversary of the founding of the Dominion of Canada L.O.L. 2855, Flesherton, decided at their last reg- ular meeting to hold a celebration in Flesherton on July 1st. Committees have been formed to plan the order of the celebration and it is expected that a program in keeping with the day will be decidS upon. This would be a good chance for Flesherton and dis- trict old boys to plan a home-coming and take part in the festivities. As Saturday, July 2nd, has also been de- clared a public holiday it will be easier to get away and enjoy a short holiday. We would be pleased to welcome all the old Flesherton boys and girls who can join with us in celebrating this great event. iFLESHERTOTN PUBLIC SCHOOL Local and Personal Miss Evelyn Ferris of Orangeville spent the week end at her home here.
